FYI: It’s unfair to judge a team’s draft class based on Consensus Boards. Without a thorough understanding of the team’s plans for the team, players, or scheme, it’s impossible to suggest a pick is good or bad.
Teams build their draft boards based on grades that project how a player will perform or contribute within their system, the Consensus Boards and media scouting reports lack that context. Without a clear understanding of the “why” behind each pick, critics are missing some key tidbits that are critical to a full assessment.
In the NFL, it takes 2-3 years to determine whether players can play or not. That’s why we should reserve judgment until we see how the players perform and how teams utilize their personnel. That’s not fun, but none of us are privy to the 32 draft boards or the schematic or personnel discussions prior to the draft.
We can debate who was selected and where they were picked, but until we understand the why and see how it plays out between the lines, we are still playing the guessing game.

Classy: Coach Prime responds to his former players who have taken shots at Colorado after leaving in the transfer portal...
"Some of our past players have been commenting on us and that's cool with me. I'm proud that they were able to earn more than they earned here… Some young men play the victim and that's not the case."
Deion Sanders is truly one of one 👏👏
@BrentASJax I am not overly sympathetic he has had multiple multiple chances to sober up. Should have never been allowed to drive after the California incident. When he kills somebody will it be “ poor Tiger” AGAIN🙄
@1010XL Come on PATRICK call it like it is the gators CHOCKED🤮 got exposed for being soft, which they are and golden did not coach up to his usual standard
@Biigmaaccee@FieldYates 😂😂😂🙄🙄🙄 the fact that you said Trent Baalke was bringing in whatever shows you don’t know anything about the Jacksonville Jaguars. Please go back to commenting on TikTok videos. GEEEEEZE🤮
The Jaguars are really out here stealing a special teams wide receiver with 36 career catches like he's the missing piece? This is what happens when a franchise has no identity they throw a bag at a 'blocking wide receiver' because some analytics nerd convinced them that's the market inefficiency. Meanwhile, actual playmakers are available. Trent Baalke is just collecting guys who 'do the dirty work' so he can pretend he's building a 'culture' while the offense continues to be a fantasy football wasteland. Seattle should let him walk and take the comp pick. Bobo's a nice story, but if he's the guy you're fighting to keep, your roster is in trouble
The Jaguars are signing Seahawks restricted free agent WR Jake Bobo to an offer sheet; Seattle has five days to decide on whether to match the offer.
Bobo has 36 catches in his first three NFL seasons, including a 17-yard TD in the NFC Championship game last season.
He’s also been a key member of their special teams units and their best blocking WR.
@HaysCarlyon 😂😂😂 exciting for who? BOOOORING🙄🙄 golf is NOT a sport it’s a recreation which is fine! Just STOP acting like people care (except wealthy white guys) WE DON’T👍
I have been informed by NBC that I won’t be back with FNIA this fall and it has given me time to reflect and also to look ahead.
It’s disappointing news but I want to thank my NBC family for making the last 17 years so special. I’ll have lasting memories of my time there, especially with Rodney Harrison who has become a tremendous friend.
God has always directed me in these moments and while I’m not sure what the next step will be for me—whether it will be in football, in broadcasting, or getting more involved in church and community outreach —I know God has plans for my life and I can’t wait see them unfold. And I am reminded of one of my favorite verses in the Bible-Romans 8:28. “God works all things for His good for those who love the Lord.”
One of your guys has an All-Pro year & you let him walk, even when value was there. Scheme? He excelled in it. Only All-Pro on D. You don't want that back? We'll hear well he couldn't do this/couldn't do that. But, he excelled in your D. Should've rushed him more too. Oh well.
@JJWatt I don’t tip I live in Florida and their minimum wage now is $14 for waitresses plus tips I don’t tip for self serve same thing with if I go to the bagel store and pick up a bag bagel I’m not tipping them for making my bagel so I can take it with me.
Genuine question on a restaurant situation:
You walk up to a counter to order.
You find your own table and seat yourself.
If you order coffee, they hand you a cup and you go fill it up yourself.
If you order food, they hand you a buzzer and when it goes off, you go pick it up yourself.
The iPad has a “20%, 25%, 30%, Other” tip option, with 20% already preselected.
What’s your move?
@_John_Shipley I’m glad our crew isn’t up there wasting their time the realities hopefully setting in what these guys do on a track and shorts doesn’t mean a damn thing. Pick somebody that plays top flight competition every week and holds their own or even better.
@McShay13 I’d want to look at his actual tape where he played football! I don’t care how fast he can run or how far he can jump what BS 🤮 the combine is a joke. Look at how they “perform” against good competition.
So if I tell you I’ve got a 6’5”, 244-pounder w/ 33” arms who runs 4.49 and verts 43.5” — and he’s already a damn fine football player who improves YOY, but he’s mostly just played off-ball LB —how high would be too high to take him?
Michael Irvin on the Super Bowl played in Santa Clara:
“This was a horrible Super Bowl. They should never ever, ever, ever bring the Super Bowl back to San Francisco. In all the years of going to a Super Bowl, this was the worst. It was blah in the city. It just wasn’t jumping. The people, blah. The buildings out here looked blah. When you go into an event it was blah. I’m thinking there should be so much money out here because the tech is out here, but it all looked so blah… I couldn’t wait until this moment came to tell you DAMN! I believe this is the worst Super Bowl I have ever gone to… NFL, you cannot come back here again. You cannot have a Super Bowl back here again. NFC Championship game, if they earned it, okay.”
Some have dismissed Steve Tisch's emails to and from Jeffrey Epstein as showing nothing more than the behavior of "consenting adults." That grossly oversimplifies the situation. nbcsports.com/nfl/profootbal…

Were the #NEPats fortunate to reach the #SuperBowl? Was their 17-win season just a result of their perceived easy schedule? What is the 2026 outlook for the AFC Champs?

Yikes: Ryan Clark says he would take NINE quarterbacks over Sam Darnold in just the NFC for next season...
First Take has truly become a joke...
Darnold just won the Super Bowl 😭😭
